Bachus Posted January 11, 2004 Posted January 11, 2004 You need two copies of the cd ident files. One goes in the root of the cd, the other set goes in Pro1 (and pro2 and 3, too). Your last directory listing is good otherwise, though. The Docs directory could go whereever you wish I suppose, I just delete it.

czaja74 Posted January 18, 2004 Posted January 18, 2004 HI GoshGread guide. However i run into problem. Here it is. I used GreenMachine XPCREATE and I have made unatt CD with all hotfixes and SAta drivers. CD was made using One step cd creation option so it has all hotfixes slipstreamed. Now when I typed E:\XPCREATE\CDROOT\I386\winnt32.exe /dudisable /noreboot /unattend:E:\XPCREATE\CDROOT\I386\winnt.sif all started ok but half way thru i got this error "An error occuredcopuing filendsuio.sys to C:\........." and options to RETRY, SKIP FILE, or EXIT SETUP. Well I'm not sure if that was animprotant file. I have tried it with normal CD and it worked. Maybe I should Slim it down and then use GM CPCREATE or maybe you have something else in mind?EDIT Is this possible to make bootable CD or floppy that only points to the files on HDD and continues from there. I have SATA RAID 0 and 1 40GB backup HDD. I bet it would be really fast to install off that backup drive.
gosh Posted January 18, 2004 Author Posted January 18, 2004 I've never seen that error before so i assume it happened sometime after reducing source.You could edit the SetupSourcePath to point to your hard drive (might need to do \disk1\partition1\ that kind of thing) to have the cd use the source on the hard drive. Or you could install using winpe.-gosh
czaja74 Posted January 18, 2004 Posted January 18, 2004 Actually it happened half way while copying it during reduco of source.
Chris Lee Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 Ok, in the replace window of Hexworks, it will not let me type the "i" of "i386" in. I tried copying and pasting, doesnt work. However, I can type letters, or all numbers..any ideas?
gosh Posted February 1, 2004 Author Posted February 1, 2004 On my website i already have pre-hexed files.-gosh
tbone587 Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 im just trying this for the first time, and when it first tells me to type my cdkey, it says invalid.. WHY! I tried so many times, this is the key i have always use
Chris Lee Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 On my website i already have pre-hexed files.-goshOk, thanks..
Chris Lee Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 I have a question, be it dumb or simple...but at the end of this guide(Your website's),1. And if I use your way, is Winxp still complete as it was before the size reducing? 2. Can I use the Original Windows XP Installation(blue screen and intro) installer to install xp? And if so, how do I do it?3. Can I not use the DISKEMU.exe installer? And use Setup.exe or whatever is default? Because I tried using the default and it wouldnt work.4. After this way of reducing, can I still remove some components such as IIS Server, WMP and Windows media from the cd?Thanks so much.
tbone587 Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 will someone help! Why wont it accept my cdkey?
Chris Lee Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 will someone help! Why wont it accept my cdkey?If it won't, it's probably you using the wrong cdkey, or using it on the wrong type of xp. :/
Chris Lee Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 Also, it says the file pcmcia.sys is corrupted, what can I do about it?
tbone587 Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 thats impossible considering this is the same key and cd i have always used...
tbone587 Posted February 1, 2004 Posted February 1, 2004 any ideas? Id like to use this method.. and gosh please help, im sure ur busy though
